The baby opened its eyes for the first time ever, and they saw that his eyes were green. The pupils were slitted like a cat. The baby's fingers had claws, and she had small fangs in his mouth. Her ears were pointed, but like an elf. Not like Inuyasha.
"Oh, Inu, she's so cute," Kagome murmured.
InuYasha just smiled and cradled his newborn daughter in his arms.
Suddenly, they heard evil laughter from behind the door. It swung open and Naraku came in!
InuYasha handed the baby back to Kagome and crouched in fighting position.
"What are YOU doing here, Naraku?!" he spoke furiously, but softly so the baby wouldn't start to cry.
"Why, I'm here to take your daughter away! MWAHAHAHA!!!!" Naraku laughed.
"Never! I would sooner die than let you have my daughter!!" InuYasha shreeked.
Naraku laughs some more.
"So be it, you little dog-eared bakaro!" Naraku shouted, and launched a viscous attack.
InuYasha smirked and held his hand out in front of him. Naraku bounced off, as if he had hit an invisible rubber wall.
"What's this trickery?!" he shouted, furious. "Where did you get this magic"
Then InuYasha tranformed into a full demon! Attached to his collar was the full Shikon Jewel, which Kagome had given him once they found all the pieces.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!" Naraku shouted, and InuYasha blasted him into oblivion.
InuYasha's daughter smiled.
Kagome asked Inu, "What shall we name her"
"Inume," Inuyasha responded without hesitation.
"I love it! What a perfect name for our daughter!" Kagome cried happily.
The Shikon Jewel around InuYasha's neck appeared to be complete, but alas, there was one piece missing. A tiny speck of the jewel, that belonged in the exact center, was missing. Far, far away, a hand closed around this tiny speck, and the one who owned the hand laughed. She lauged for a long time, laughing at InuYasha's folly. With this, the strongest shard, she had the power to resist the power of the rest of the jewel.
12 years later
"She's weaker than you were, Inuyasha," Kagome said to her husband. InuYasha nodded in agreement. They were watching their daughter, Inume, train with a sword. She was fighting against a lone, wild demon they had found wandering around the valley below the mountain they lived on. Two hours after Inume launched her first attack on the demon, the young girl was covered in sweat, and appeared to be losing the battle. It was a simple rabbit-demon that didn't have very much power. Even back before InuYasha had (most of) the shikon jewel, it would have taken him less than 30 minutes to defeat the monster. His daughter was losing after four times that much time. Finally Inume managed to swing the sword mightily, and the rabbit demon lay, slain, on the ground.
"Father, mother, did you see me fight the demon?!" Inume shouted happily.
"Yes, Inume. You did kill it. But you need more training. It shouldn't have taken you that long to defeat it." InuYasha told the girl. "I know it's hard for you, since you are only 1/4 demon, but you must try as hard as you can!
"Can we go find a new demon to fight? I want to prove that I can do better!" Inume said eagerly.
"No, Inume." InuYasha told him. "You are not ready. Continue with the easy rabbit demons until you can kill one in less than 30 minutes. Then try taking on two at once. Only then will you be ready to battle a weasel-demon.Think of it as something to fight for; something that drives you onward because you want it so badly"
"Ok, father, I'm gonna win against another rabbit-demon! I'll win in under a minute! One day I'll even fight a dragon demon. Someday I'll even fight a pure demon!!" Inume told his father.
"You will not! Even your father couldn't win against a full demon alone! He needed to the Shikon Jewel to even banish one. God knows what he'd need to destroy one!" Kagome told him. "You may eventually win against a dragon-demon, but pure demons are much more powerful"
"Yeah," InuYasha agreed. "If you fight one of them, you will either die swiftly or die slowly, depending on the kind of mood the demon is in. It's no picnic fighting full demons. I've only ever fought one. The only reason I even escaped is because right at that moment, Kagome gave me the Shikon jewel. And you know that story through and through, forwards and backwards, upside-down, and in your sleep. With your hands tied behind your back"
"Tell me again, father! Start at the part where you first saw Katara, the evil full demon"
"Ok, Inume. One last time before you go. It all started when...."
